WORKOUT SUMMARY: Jan 4

I DID get up this morning and go to the gym, despite my desire to chuck my phone across the room when the alarm went off at 5:45....

I could only get 15 minutes on the elliptical before my foot started to give me fits....I sprained all of the ligaments on the top of my right foot in October, and it still gives me fits sometimes.  The doctor said it could be 6 months to a year before it was truly back to normal, so I am still being careful.  That's going to stink when I go with my gym buddy next week - she's going to want to go longer on the elliptical and I hate wimping out.... :(

BUT - I got 30 crunches in using my own body as resistance, and 90 crunches in on the ab machine (65 lbs of resistance). My favorite ab machine at the gym has a seat that swivels, so I can work on my side abs as well as my crazy stomach.

I also did 30 pull downs (60 lbs max), and my stretching/cool down routine.

I grabbed a class schedule this morning on my way out, and I will take a look at it after breakfast and see what I'm going to do the rest of the week. I have two houses to clean this week, so I modify my gym routine on those days.  My gym buddy's family is in town, so I am on my own this week!
